and I can in retrospect count on two fingers, at $1000 per finger what I have
spent on what I will call deferred maintenance. On numerous upgrades that I
elected to do including changing out the Primus to Wabasto I have spent less
than $10,000. To me, hydronic heat is worth its weight in gold.
> We all know that reworking the interior of a coach with new upholsery,
carpet, tile etc is extremely expensive. A case in point, lately my wife wanted
to recover the couch, why I don't know, so I got a bid. I decided I am in the
wrong business. They sew, I blow out my knees in the tile business. A new
quality paint job is somewhere between $12-20K.
> I would rather use the coach than work on it every day, but that is just me.
If an owner kept track of time at a reasonable hourly rate and parts costs, one
would be better off paying the piper at the date of purchase rather than over a
period of years, assuming that coach was in the same shape as mine was when I
purchased it. But then again, that is just how I think. fwiw
